Right now, There's alot of spam going on in the chat
"Selling this this this, pm me" and its just over crowded.
What I propose is,
Since you need an interface to trade, rather then "inviting" someone to do 1 v 1 trading...
This might be a big task, but I think its worth it in the future.

So, other games also have a trading feature, 1 v 1 trading, but also, usually a trade "center"

for instance
Runescape (inb4 stupid) has their "Grand exchange". It's a free market. you put up your item, and you put down the price, Same with Vindictus. You put up your item, and you can sell it for any amount you want/ search anything you want.

Now, in the case of Warframe, perhaps you could give the option to "trade" Mods for plat, credits, etc.
for instance.

 

Say, I want to buy 100 plat.
I'd "sell" my items, credits, or keys for it.
so

Say, I have Split chamber
and, I think 100 plat is reasonable. (even though its not)
 

The Kiosk as it is
you have a drop down menu of Mods, Plat, Credits, and Keys.

Id put in the box, my "split chamber"
and , rather then the other person putting in what they would trade.

I would just put in what I would like to receive.

so, I would have
Split chamber on top
and 100 plat on the bottom
and it would have, say, a 1 day, or so expiration?

so
right now, you go to the Kiosk, Activate it, and click someone's name.
That's how you trade to players

but for this feature, there would be a "Tenno market" Option or something
and You click that
and you have the same interface
3 boxes on top, 3 on bottom.
you click the one on the top, for the Item you wish to trade
and on the bottom, is what you wish to receive.

on the bottom, instead of haveing the other person put in what they want, you'd put what you wish to recive.
So, on the top, you put in Split chamber
and on the bottom, you click it, click Plat, and put in 100
and wait, and when it goes through, you get a notification in the mail, just like we are for the events "you have been awarded 100000 credits" and it would be from "player XXX" so you know who you bought from (not that it matters)
and know that the transaction went through.

but,
there will also be an "I wish to find" button type thing.
you click that, and the same drop down  menu comes down
Keys,Mods,Plat,Credits.
but instead of YOUR items, you see the entire "database" of what people have posted.

so, if you want a T3 Extermination key
youd click
"I wish to find"

click Keys
and the entire list, would be all keys that people have posted for sale
and you find one which you want, and depending on what the person asks for return, you can "trade" for it, by .. well, the same way it is now, it would be as if the other player has put in their Item, and confirmed.
without needing to interact with that person.
and
right now there's a limitation on trading per day, so these would go towards it.


Very rough idea, perhaps explained it bad?

but, what are your guises opinions?

Yeah, this is actually better. DE said they didn't want the spams of "Buying, Selling, Trading" but with the introduction of the trading kiosk/outpost, it was inevitable because of the way it was released. This can't be avoided. Your idea can effectively lower the spam though. I have played vindictus, and agree that this is a pretty good idea. Oh well. We'll see how DE takes this idea.
